Review: The Marvels

The adrenaline shot that audiences used to receive with films such as Avengers: Infinity War seem part of a bygone era that nervous execs are hoping to recapture. But after Avengers: End Game and Spider-man: Far From Home, Phase Three closed an unparalleled winning streak while Phase Four seemed to divide audiences with divisive films such as Eternals.

It seems every studio has felt the pushback from a lethargic audience starving for original content.But can The Marvels save us from caped crusader burnout?Featuring Carol Danvers (Brie Larson) from Captain Marvel and The Avengers, Monica Rambeau from WandaVision (Teyonah Parris) and Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) from Ms. Marvel, The Marvels is a female-led superhero pic directed by Nia DaCosta (Candyman) in s...
